Dolphins, penguins and neutrinos
Date and Time
Location
Particle Physicists study the fundamental particles and forces of our universe. One of the most tantalizing enigmas in this field is the nature of neutrinos. This subatomic particles, sometimes referred as ghost particles, are a headache for researchers all around the world since they are very difficult to detect. Therefore, we have built some extraordinarily ambitious experiments like, KM3NeT and IceCube, to study these elusive particles. In this talk, I will explain why neutrinos are so interesting and some of the main features of these detectors.
